  • The "Us vs. Them" mentality is also called the "in-group bias", in which you tend to align with other members of a perceived group (with little to no logical reason, it can be as simple as belts vs. suspenders). Like many other fallacies or biases, it is a built-in feature of our caveman-brains that no longer benefits us. When used in propaganda, it is often paired with the "strawman fallacy" to build the perception of an enemy that is barely even human.

    You can learn to recognize these biases in yourself and in others - This is called critical thinking. I recommend the podcast "You Are Not So Smart" to everyone to get more insight on this subject.

  • Did you literally type kill -9 firefox? Because the kill command normally takes PIDs not process names. killall takes process names, but process names are not always straightforward. Under normal circumstances firefox would exit when X/Wayland goes away though.

    Using the sysrq key in the "reverse BUSIER" sequence when your system won't shutdown/reboot is always better than shutting the power on a running system.

  • Ground coffee in a french press. Pour half full of water, stir, pour again. Leave the lid off for 4 minutes, then remove the scum from the top with a spoon and press. Gets me 3 large cups that I drink with (cow-) milk until pooptime. I'd use beans here, but my wife keeps the free bags of ground coffee flowing (for reasons I cannot share) and the results are still pretty good.

    If I need more coffee after this, I'll use a Philips espresso machine to make either a café latte, cafe au lait or sometimes iced coffee. I use oat milk for the latte/au lait so I can use the milk foam thingie for longer without cleaning it. At the moment I have a few mixed bags of beans brought from Kenya, so that's nice. Otherwise beans from the supermarket.

    The water here is very hard, so I use filtered water.

  • I'm not familiar with the TRegExpr engine and its quirks, so I could be wrong about some or all of this, but let's try anyway:

    The characters in the brackets describe a set of characters, but without any quantifier after the brackets, they will only match a single character. If you want to match an entire string, you should begin the regex with a ^ character (which means "start of string" when outside brackets), have a quantifier such as * or + after the list and then end it with $ ("end of string").

    The ^ character reverses the list, so it will match any characters not in the list. This may be what you want (i.e. to copy all the files that matches because they do not contain the characters in the list), but I feel that it should be mentioned.

    I suspect that you may need to escape the / character with a And since the error message mentions * and ? I'd also try escaping those.

    So to match only the filenames that are FAT32 safe, I'd try something like this:

    ^[^\\\/:\*\?\"<>|]+$

    https://regex101.com/ is a great site for learning regex so I'd recommend that you try it out there (and keep in mind that different regex engines can have subtle differences, but sadly the site doesn't do TRegExpr).
